How We Research
We compare products from their published specs and features; the verdicts below are our independent editorial opinions.
If you want marathon battery life and a console-first wireless setup for Xbox, choose LucidSound LS100X; if you need one headset that hops between PC, PlayStation, Switch, phone and wired 3.5mm with a detachable boom mic, choose MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark.
• LucidSound LS100X biggest strength: enormous battery figures — up to 130 hours over Bluetooth or up to 72 hours in Game Mode through the USB adapter — plus 50mm drivers, three EQ modes and a dual-mic system that keeps a backup mic alive after you detach the boom.
• LucidSound LS100X biggest trade-off: it's built around Xbox and the bundled USB adapter, so its Game Mode advantage is narrow, and there's no active noise cancellation in the spec sheet.
• MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark biggest strength: connectivity flexibility — 2.4GHz with a dual USB-A/Type-C receiver, Bluetooth, and a 3.5mm wired jack, so it follows you across PC, PS5, Switch, laptop and phone.
• MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark biggest trade-off: the battery claim is generic ("long battery life") with no hour figure, the driver is smaller at 40mm, and the weight is listed as 0.4 kg.
• Pick LucidSound LS100X if you game mostly on Xbox and want to charge rarely.
• Pick MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark if you want one headset for many devices, including wired listening.
The LS100X is a wireless over-ear headset with a very specific pitch: play a long time, charge almost never. Connect through the included wireless USB adapter and you're in Game Mode, which the spec sheet describes as low-latency and interference-free, holding a strong connection even in crowded Wi-Fi. Connect over Bluetooth 5.2 and the battery figure stretches to 130 hours. In Game Mode it's rated up to 72 hours. Either way, this is a headset designed around people who forget to plug things in.
The audio side is more serious than the battery number suggests. Custom-tuned 50mm dynamic drivers cover 20Hz–20,000Hz at 32 ohm, and you get three EQ modes — Signature, Bass Boost and FPS — plus Windows Sonic spatial sound. For shooters, the FPS mode and the dual-mic system matter: a flexible boom mic with an LED mute indicator handles chat, and if you detach it, a built-in backup mic takes over. Controls live on the earcups (volume, game/chat balance, mic mute, game audio mute, mic monitoring), and the spec sheet lists touch as the control method. The frame is ultra-lightweight with memory foam padding, and the set weighs 10.24 ounces. It ships with a detachable boom mic, mic port cover, USB-C charging cable, wireless USB adapter and a black carrying case, backed by a one-year limited warranty.
Buy it if you play mostly on Xbox Series X|S, want the longest possible time between charges, and like on-earcup controls you can hit without looking. Skip it if you need active noise cancellation, want a wired 3.5mm option, or game across many different platforms — the receiver here is USB, and the design language is Xbox-themed.
The L80PRO is the opposite philosophy: fewer hero numbers, more ways to connect. The 2.4GHz receiver carries both USB-A and Type-C interfaces in one dongle, so it plugs straight into a PC, laptop, phone or Switch without an adapter. That link is rated at 20ms latency with a 10-metre wireless range — not a huge radius, so it's a same-room setup rather than a wander-around-the-house one. Bluetooth 5 gives you a second wireless path, and when battery runs out (or latency matters most), the 3.5mm jack turns it into a plain wired headset. Note that the wired jack is 3.5mm, not USB.
Audio is handled by 40mm dynamic drivers at 32 ohm, described as professionally tuned with clear highs, mids and lows and stereo surround sound. You won't get the EQ-mode switching of the LucidSound, but you do get active noise cancellation listed among the controls — unusual at this tier. The dual-mic design mirrors the LucidSound idea in a different way: a hidden built-in mic for calls and meetings, plus a detachable high-sensitivity boom mic for gaming, with automatic switching that disables the internal mic when the boom is plugged in, so the two don't interfere. The boom rotates 120 degrees.
Comfort is a stated priority — an adjustable headband with elastic support, high-density memory foam, and breathable mesh-style ear cushions and headband that the spec sheet claims dissipate heat better than standard PU. Weight is listed at 0.4 kg, which is on the heavier side compared to the 10.24-ounce LucidSound, so if lightness is your top comfort factor, that's a real trade-off to weigh. There's also a power-saving mode that shuts the headset down after three minutes of inactivity. In the box: headset, detachable noise-cancelling mic, 3.5mm audio cable, USB-C cable and manual. It's listed as compatible with PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox, Mac, Windows and phones.
Buy it if you want one headset that works on PC, console, Switch and phone, you value the wired fallback, or you take a lot of calls and want a built-in mic for those. Skip it if you need a specific battery-hour guarantee, want a lighter headset, or you're strictly an Xbox player who wants the cleanest low-latency game link.
• Best for battery life → LucidSound LS100X. Up to 130 hours on Bluetooth or up to 72 hours in Game Mode is stated plainly, versus an unquantified "long battery life" on the L80PRO.
• Best for multi-device flexibility → MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark. 2.4GHz, Bluetooth 5 and a 3.5mm wired jack cover more hardware than the LucidSound's Bluetooth + USB adapter pairing.
• Best for Xbox-first gaming → LucidSound LS100X. The bundled wireless USB adapter and Game Mode are aimed squarely at Xbox Series X|S.
• Best for wired listening → MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark. The 3.5mm jack means it works with no charge and no dongle.
• Best for audio tuning options → LucidSound LS100X. Three EQ modes (Signature, Bass Boost, FPS) plus Windows Sonic support give you more ways to shape sound.
• Best for noise isolation → MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark. Active noise cancellation is listed; the LucidSound spec sheet lists noise control as none.
• Best for lighter wear → LucidSound LS100X. 10.24 ounces versus a listed 0.4 kg on the L80PRO.
• Best for calls and meetings → MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark. The built-in hidden mic is explicitly pitched for daily calls, with auto-switching when you attach the boom.
• Best for driver size → LucidSound LS100X. 50mm versus 40mm, both dynamic, both 32 ohm.
In my opinion, the LucidSound LS100X is the better buy for a dedicated Xbox player who hates charging — the battery figures, 50mm drivers, EQ modes and on-earcup controls form a coherent console headset. But the L80PRO is the smarter pick for almost everyone else, because tri-mode connectivity plus a wired fallback means it never becomes useless when you change devices. If you own more than one platform, I'd take the MAMBASNAKE × Attack Shark. Check the current price on Amazon before deciding, since the gap between them changes the math.
FAQ
Yes. It has a 3.5mm headphone jack and includes a 3.5mm audio cable, so it can run wired when the battery is empty or when you want the lowest possible latency. The LucidSound LS100X has no 3.5mm jack in its spec sheet.
The LucidSound LS100X states concrete figures: up to 130 hours over Bluetooth and up to 72 hours in Game Mode. The L80PRO only describes "long battery life" plus a three-minute auto-shutdown power-saving mode, so no hour comparison is possible.
If comfort over long sessions is your priority, note the LucidSound LS100X is listed at 10.24 ounces while the L80PRO is listed at 0.4 kg. Both use memory foam, but the LucidSound is the lighter of the two on paper.
